martin luther king, jr. day celebration
The AACW was established
to sustain the African American Cultural Week, a week of sharing
the African-American culture in celebration of cultural diversity,
as a recurrent event and similar events throughout the year.
We have incorporated as a nonprofit corporation for this purpose.
We work with other organizations to foster understanding of
cultural diversity in Yellow Springs, Wilberforce, Springfield,
Xenia, Fairborn, and other communities of the Miami Valley.
The original 1991 idea was
perpetuated by a similar celebration in 1992 and in 1994. Out
of this history, our organization arises. It is the principal
activity of the African-American Cross Cultural Works. Our
motivations are simply that we want to live in communities
which value and celebrate diversity based on the assertion “Everybody
Counts.” Each of these assembles scholars, performers
and other artists. The scholars come from academic backgrounds
and less formal experiences. The performers include those of
national note and those who are acclaimed within the communities
of the Miami Valley and surrounding area. The style of our
work encourages the transmission of skills and the transmission
of a culture from one generation to another and among subcultures.
The work of AACW is described
as a sharing of the African-American culture in celebration
of cultural diversity. Attention to diversity broadens in our
activities to address cultural inclusion by age, gender, class,
race, and other factors that divide and oppress. |
